2020 - 2021 Mini Mates
Head coach: Kendra Meller
Assistant Coach: Andi Gottfried
Hayden Synchronized Skating's juvenile level athletes, the Mini Mates, compete both regionally and nationally. They are the 2020 Eastern Sectional Silver Medalists and the 2020 U.S. National Bronze Medalists. In 2019 they earned a silver medal at the National Championships and they are the 2018 U.S. National Champions. Mini Mates athletes range in age from 10 to 12, practice three times per week, and several on the team will have completed the senior moves in the field test by season end. Each season, it is the team's mission to earn medals at Sectionals and Nationals while perfecting the skills necessary to move up to teams in the intermediate or novice divisions. The Mini Mates give back to the community through volunteer work and have participated in charitable fundraisers and food collection to support Cradles to Crayons, the Lexington Food Pantry, and the Jimmy Fund
